Fuck! We were all finally starting to get along so well. She even finally started wanting to include me. When she said she wanted me at her birthday dinner I was surprised, but so happy. I was finally being included by her, after everything I’ve done. All the ‘friends’ in the world, but lately the only one I cared about is her. And now, to find out how much me leaving her when we were young affected her, I want revenge. I stand up, ready to go find Clara. “No! We still don’t have proof! You are not allowed to do anything until we know for certain!” My dad shouts, reading my mind. Unfortunately, for Dallas he was the closet thing to me at the time. I throw him to the ground, screaming curses and charge out of the room.I went down to the game room and started pacing the floor. I hear Walker and Dallas join me. “Why the fuck are they saying we set her up!” I scream looking over at them, when I notice Mia came with them. “I think it’s pretty obvious.” Walker states but doesn’t elaborate,
I got out of two weeks of going back to school, not including the days I was in the hospital. And once Liam let Cole and Walker be my sole guardians, I slept most of the second week. My doctor says I’m good to go back I just have to be careful of my head. The fracture in my skull hasn’t completely healed. I still have my cast on my arm, but I guess that’s safe since it has protection. My ribs don’t hurt that much anymore, and my bruises are all a gross greenish yellow color, almost healed. I’d like to just stay home and finish everything at home, but I know my mom would want to stay here with me, and she can’t afford to do that. So, I guess I’m going back to school tomorrow.It’s for the best maybe my protection detail will decide I’m healed enough to take care of myself and leave me alone.I walk outside the next morning, finally taking in the fresh air, and see I’m not that lucky. Liam’s car is parked in front of my house and he’s outside it, waiting for me. I internally groan, alre
I sneak through the doors, and head outside. I sit on one of the giant rocks lining the parking lot. I try to take a couple deep breaths, but my ribs proving it pointless. I sigh and put my head in my hands with my elbows on my knees slightly uncomfortable with a cast. “Thinking about leaving?” I hear Walker say behind me. I groan loudly and look back at him. I move my head so fast I nearly lose my balance. Walker runs over and places me up right back on the rock before I can hurt myself more. I can’t take it anymore and I just burst into tears. I hate that I’m letting him see this, but I can’t stop them. I pull my knees to my chest, forgetting about the pain it causes, and cry into my legs. I hear Walker get closer to me and before I know it, he’s picking me up. I don’t fight him and just let him take me wherever he wants. At this point if he’s taking me to a trap I don’t even care. I just want this all to be over.He slides me into his suv and buckles my seatbelt. Then he gets to th
Me and the guys are standing in front of Amy’s house waiting for Walker to get here, when we see his suv. Walker parks and jumps out and goes to the passenger side. He opens the door and then leans in and grabs Amy bridal style from the suv. She’s sleeping soundly in his arms, and I can feel my anger starting to amp up. I go to grab her from Walker’s arms, and he pulls her away from me. He seems to think of something and then allows me to take her. I shoot him a what the fuck look, to which he just shrugs and looks down at Amy.I carry her up the stairs, and lay her down on the bed covering her with blankets. I start to leave when she grabs my hand. I turn around quickly to see if she needs something, and her eyes are still closed. “Liam, I’m sorry about all of this. I wish I was a wolf so maybe none of this would be happening.” She opens her eyes and looks up at me, her eyes are brimming with tears. “Don’t you dare apologize. None of this is your fault. We like you just the way you a
Later that night, my party has started and I’m already over it. My parents both left and went over to Amy’s for the evening. It’s a rare day in this life when I’m jealous of my parents, but I’d do anything to switch shoes with them right now. This whole party has been like I expected, all the girls walking up to me hoping to be the future Alpha’s mate.I hear some commotion near the door, and see Clara, Olive and Kylie walking in. They all three are dressed to the nines and start stalking over to me. Not really sure what Clara is doing, she’s only seventeen, even if she is my mate we wouldn’t be able to tell yet. I groan inwardly and swing my head to the guys. They all have murder written all over their face. We’re all pretty sure she’s the reason Amy was attacked, so in conclusion also the reason we’ll never see her anymore.She gets to me and throws her body on my lap and swings her arms around my neck. She’s acting as if I didn’t completely ghost her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!” She
Do you ever wake up and feel like you’re dreaming? Like everything that is happening to you can’t be real? That’s how I feel. If it wasn’t for the pain in my bones I don’t even think I’d believe any of this was real. It can’t be real, and yet, I can feel Liam’s warmth flowing through my body right now. A memory that I have tried to forget for six years comes rushing to me.I run outside, the day after the talk with my mom, explaining we were humans amongst a werewolf pack. I’m so confused, has Liam always known? How did I not know about this? I run across the street and race through Liam’s front door. He’s not in the living room or kitchen, so I run upstairs to his bedroom. I still don’t find him so I run down to the game room. Where is he?Liam’s mom calls to me, telling me he’s out back, so I rush out back. Once I get out there he’s with some of his other friends, Walker, Cole and Dallas. They’re sitting in a circle in the middle of the yard, seemingly having an intense conversation
“Right.” Is all Liam says, before standing up. He starts putting on his shoes and walking towards the door. “I’m going to go grab some work and I’ll come back over.” He tells me, I look over at my desk again. “You don’t have to come back over.” I say and he looks down, “I still want to make sure you’re protected. Even if you plan on leaving us a year early.” He says and doesn’t wait for my reply and walks out.At least he isn’t trying to make me stay. I guess I can give him points for that. But it still hurts, watching them be sad about me leaving. Two months ago, my only reservation on leaving was my mom. Mia’s always supported me and understood, she always said as long as I stayed in contact with her, she’d survive. Now, that they are apart of my life, I have to make them understand as well.He comes back in less then five minutes and sits down quietly on my bed. He spreads out his books and schoolwork and gets to work. About an hour of silence goes by and I can’t take it anymore. I
We just sit there for awhile looking at out at the creek until Liam finally speaks, “Look, I know we said we weren’t going to talk about this stuff anymore, but I just want to say one thing... You never didn’t matter to me. I stayed away because I thought it was best for both of us. Once I realized what you were going through, I tried to help. I tried to keep Clara and the girls away, but even then, I knew it wasn’t enough. I realized some time ago that me ditching you wasn’t the right decision, but it was too late by then. I honestly thought you’d never forgive me... You have no idea how happy I was when you wanted me to go to your birthday dinner, but then everything happened, and I was worried I was going to lose you again. So, talking about a future where you leave is hard, I just got you back...” He pauses, looking out at the creek. “This is where my wolf always comes when we shift. It always calms him to be here, and I think that’s because this was the place you and I would alwa
While his body is turned towards his dresser, I peel off my soaking wet shirt and throw it to the side. He looks back when he hears the splatter sound on the ground. Then looks up at me with wide eyes. He leaves the clothes he’s brought out of the dresser there and walks up to me slowly. I stare him in the eyes his whole walk to me. While he’s watching me, I reach back and unclip my bra and throw it to the side with my shirt. He takes a sharp intake of breath, but doesn’t move forward to touch me. I hesitate, then move down and unbutton my jeans. I peel them off slowly, still trying to keep eye contact. I stand up straight and I see his eyes slowly look over my body, that only has underwear on it.He takes off his shorts and slowly walks closer to me. He pulls me into his arms and kisses me passionately. He pulls away slightly, “Are you sure?” He asks, giving me a look that I know means if I want to back out I can. Which makes me want him more. I nod my head and pull him closer to my
A few days later, and it’s time for Mia’s birthday! We’ve already decided to add some security to this party to make sure Clara isn’t able to come start drama. So, I’m actually looking forward to it now. My mom again agrees to let me skip my schoolwork, and as soon as I wake up, I start filling up the water balloons.Dimitri walks inside the back door, he started acting like this is his home. I can’t say for sure, but I think him and my mom have something going on. It’s about time, I haven’t ever seen her with anyone. He looks at me and starts laughing, “What are you doing?” He asks, and I join in with him. “Just a bit of pre-party fun for Mia and the guys.” He smiles kindly as he grabs a bottle of water from the fridge.“Those boys really seemed to like you two. Looked like you had a lot of fun at prom.” My face reddens, because he was here when Liam ‘dropped me off’ but didn’t leave until the next morning. I hide my face but nod to him. He comes closer to me, with his hand outstretc
I’m just looking around the limo amazed, when Liam leans down close to my ear. “Do you like it?” I smile, “Of course! It’s beautiful, Liam. Thank you!” I look into his eyes, and he smirks, “Nothing is as beautiful as you, Amy. I’m so happy you came with me tonight, I want to make it magical.” I start to smile, but before I can his lips find mine. I’ll never get enough of him, I wish this feeling could last forever, but I know it.... No! I can’t think like that, not tonight. I promised myself I was just going to live tonight, no thinking of the future, no thinking of the past, just in the moment, with my amazing friends and amazing Liam.When he pulls away, I hold onto the side of his tux making eye contact, “You look very handsome tonight, Liam.” I say with all the confidence that I usually never feel, he smirks and I pull him in for another kiss. I’m honestly not sure what all happened in the limo on the way to the restaurant, because I was a little preoccupied, but before I know it
I spend the next week with school in the mornings, training with Walker after, and then hanging with everybody after training. I made a mistake finishing those fifty push-ups, because now Walker knows I can do it, so now I’m forced to every day. He’s also started adding on some running around the pack, but that’s something we all do together, so at least it’s usually entertaining.Luckily, Walker gave me today off, because it’s finally prom day! Mia came over early and my mom took us to get our nails, hair and make-up done. We take a break after getting our nails done to go get some lunch at the cafe my mom and I both frequent.We sit there eating for a little while, before my mom looks at me anxiously. “Are you sure you’re going to be safe tonight? I don’t like that I won’t be right next door in case you need me.” I sigh, because we’ve talked about this several times over the past few weeks. “Mom, I’ll be fine. I doubt Liam will leave my side all night. And if he does I’m sure Dallas
I turn around and lean against the table as Liam comes up caging me in. “You look beautiful.” He says as he places a gentle kiss on my cheek. I pull his lips to mine and like always it’s like I escape this world and fall head first into pure bliss. We’re interrupted by Cole pulling Liam away from me and dragging him into the living room. “You can make-out later, right now we need to party!” Cole exclaims, shouting the word party, having the whole house howl in response. I chuckle shaking my head, when Dallas hands me my drink. “Thank you.” I say sweetly, taking it from him.He smiles and nods his head towards the living room. I take a deep breath and follow him. I’ve been getting better, but big gatherings are still not my thing. Kiera runs up to me, stopping me from getting to the chair I was about to sit in, until I wanted to start dancing. She wraps her arm around mine and starts pulling me the opposite direction. Dallas spins on his heels and follows us, he doesn’t like being too
Mia and I leave Liam’s to go get a couple last minute things for Cole’s birthday party tomorrow. We’re walking around the store. “So, Amy, what’s the holdup?” Mia asks me out of no where. I look around to see if there’s something I’m not seeing. I look at her confused, she rolls her eyes. “You and Liam. Why haven’t you two gone all the way yet?” She clarifies my mouth goes into a o shape finally understanding. I turn my head and grab a blow horn off the shelve, and turn back to her. “It’s not like I don’t want to, but there’s actually a couple reasons.” She urges me to continue with her eyes, I roll my eyes again looking around to make sure Dallas is still across the store. “First, it seems like every time we get to that point, he pulls away... I’m not sure he wants to.” She rolls her eyes, “Amy, he’s a teenage boy, he wants to do it.” I look down embarrassed to be talking about this.“And?” She urges me. “I’m scared, okay? He has a mate out there somewhere, and when I think about Lia
Christmas and new year came and went quickly. All of us hanging out like we were always meant to be together. Amy and Mia’s appearance in our lives have proven to make our whole atmosphere brighter. Even my mom and dad smile more with them around. Walker and Dallas have both turned eighteen unfortunately neither of them has found their mates yet though.Amy finally got her cast off, and they say her skull has healed. Everything in our world is finally working out for the better. We’re happy, we all are, and it’s the end of March so the cold weather is finally going away. Making it easier for us to all hang outside with Amy. Dallas and I were having to sandwich her at some points because she’d just get too cold. Most of the time we would just end up going inside, regardless of Amy’s protest that she could handle it. Now, I no longer have to share her with him. I’ve gotten over my jealously of there relationship for the most part, but still doesn’t mean I’d liked having him holding her.
Once we get back to Amy’s house, she heads up to her room to get changed. I follow her and wait for her on the bed, while she goes to her bathroom to change.I feel like a lot was spoken on this tonight. I couldn’t be happier that she’s willing to give us an actual chance. And that kiss, Goddess above. I could barely breathe when she went in to kiss me, my whole body wanted it. I don’t know what I would have done had she changed her mind. I don’t think there’s any words that could describe that kiss, all I know is I hope it keeps happening. I can’t believe I went so long without her. Everything about her draws me in. She’s right, I really need to thank Dallas.She comes out dressed in jeans and a tight pink short sleeve shirt. She smiles at me and goes to grab her hair clip off her desk. She accidentally trips over her backpack but catches herself quickly on the desk.I see her freeze, did she hurt herself? “Are you okay?” I ask getting worried because she still hasn’t moved. Then, sh
He doesn’t say anything for a minute then he sighs, “I brought you here, to this exact spot because it’s a reminder to me. To see you sitting here... It tells me, everything I did was for nothing. Everything we both, but especially you, went through was in vain. You still broke through my resolve. You still made me care about you, regardless of me trying not to... I believe you being here, in this spot where I fell apart, proves that we were always meant to stay together. That no matter what we went through, us being together, as friends or more I don’t know, but we were always going to end up here.”I stare at the sky, trying to blink away the tears. Walker had said something similar, that I was meant to be with them. What if it’s all true, some divine intervention is making sure we’re where we are supposed to be. That I’m supposed to be apart of their group. I’m not sure if that makes the last six years of my life worse or what. If Liam hadn’t decided it was better for us both if we
